New System Now Coming Early Next Year

Is Your Organization Prepared

for this Major Change?

Thank you to all employers who completed September training in our new Employer Access system and also submitted the required wage report test file! We greatly appreciate your cooperation. This was a necessary step to prepare you to conduct business with IMRF in the new system.


Unfortunately, a significant number of employers did not complete the required training or submit the required test file. In addition, many test files contained discrepancies, especially related to Voluntary Additional Contributions (VAC).


As a result of these challenges, the transition to the new Employer Access system will now take place in the first quarter of 2024. This will allow more time for all employers to become prepared for this major change.


Start Preparing Today!

Before we go live with the new system, it is important that all employers build the knowledge and skills needed to use the new system.


  • If your employer has not yet submitted the required wage report test file, please do so immediately. Visit this webpage today to find everything you need to submit the file.


  • If you did not participate in the required training, or want a refresher, view a recording of the Employer Access Training Webinar.


  • If IMRF reaches out to your employer regarding VAC discrepancies, please respond immediately. If your employer is unresponsive, you will experience significant delays when submitting wage report files in the new system. Please watch closely for requests from IMRF regarding VAC discrepancies!
